How can I make my sheets more fitted?

To make your sheets more fitted, especially your flat sheet, use the "hospital corners" technique at the foot of your bed.

Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Tuck the End: Tuck the end of the flat sheet under the mattress at the foot of the bed.
2. Create a Triangle: Pull the sheet taut and fold it up at a 45-degree angle. Think about forming a neat triangle.
3. Tuck the Excess: Tuck the excess fabric hanging down from the 45-degree fold underneath the mattress.
4. Smooth and Repeat: Smooth out the top surface of the sheet and repeat the process on the other side of the bed's foot.

This technique creates a snug and secure fit for your flat sheet. It can also be adapted for fitted sheets if they are slightly too large, although it works best with flat sheets. If your fitted sheets are too loose, consider using sheet suspenders or purchasing sheets with deeper pockets to better fit your mattress.
